Emily of New Moon
Book 1 of the Emily series
After her father's death, imaginative Emily Starr is sent to New Moon Farm to live with stern Murray relatives who do not understand her fierce need to write. Friendship with Ilse, Teddy, and Perry gives her companionship, while her private journals and moments of uncanny insight help her preserve a self the household cannot easily control. School conflicts, family history, and grief test Emily's pride as she begins taking her literary ambition seriously. Atmospheric and emotionally sharper than a simple orphan story, this series opener suits stormy evenings and readers who want a determined young writer, complicated guardians, and beauty discovered inside an austere home.
